Pam 312

[shuseido]

15% off retail price from local AD. Consider good price?

No one knows. Likewise for STI.

IMO, new model watches, always be prepared to pay premium. It is about bragging rights when you wear the latest. Once you notice everyone wears one, flip it for the next latest model.

What is the price now for 312? Will it even drop further? Thought of getting one soon.

I also learning, we all should be...

Marina Militare is special permission from Royal Italian Navy which is known as Marina Militare in 1950s.
It was made for deck officers that do not need to dive.
Hence the lesser depth specs.
I learn this from a great fellow member today like Democritus....thanks

Me not here to shoot down any1.
Anyone can shot me anytime if I made a mistake.
But, be prepared to be shoot by me if u do mistake here or elsewhere.

I am direct & I dun beat around the bush.
I hope other members are direct to the point over here as well.
There's no point to pretend to be politically correct when u r rite & someone else is not.
Be brave to stand on your points & but be sure you have the fact right or be ready to be corrected.

I apologize to every1 here if I have antagonize you.
Rest assured, my intention is to share what I know (which is not much).
Thanks.

Dun just anyhow hentam names here.
Marina are for Luminors w second hand.
Marina aint got nothing to do with crown or lever or protection system.
I'm no expert here.
But I just cannot stand on dis-information.

1950s case has different lever.
Luminor has different lever.
I bet u dun even know that.
Dun worrie, we all are not expert here...
I oso learn from u all.

This is spot on.
Marina stands for 'second-hand' function. Nothing to do with the crown protection system.
Base are just luminor.
Marina Militaire is another thing....and appears only on certain models with permission from the Italy Army.

hello, not all LUM are Marinas

Pam marina crown is special as it was developed and distributed in 1956 and patented in the U.S.A. in 1960.

312 is something like 104. except it 1950 case and new movement by Pam.

That'd all.

Predicted the price will drop to 7k for preowned.
